You see….I have a bad history with the evil little bastards, somewhere…in Waspville…there is a big poster of my face, and on it, in large bold letters..are the words…’Kill this motherfucker at any given opportunity’….and here’s how I know that to be a fact….yes…it’s pointless story time….you lucky, lucky people…(sigh)

As a child, many moons ago… I was riding my BMX through a forest with my friends, and somehow happened upon the mother of all wasp gangster families, the Peaky Blinders of the insect world if you will…who saw fit to adorn me with a lovely wasp onesie…..stabbing me no less than 12 times with their angry poisonous pointy penis’s….one of which…..was right on the nutsack, oh yeah…let that sink in (that wasp certainly did) …. thankfully, as my ever growing tribe of offspring can attest to…the damage did not appear to be permanent, I just stank of TCP for a month and acquired the nickname of ‘Willy One Bollock’…..due to my lopsided and overly bulbous fleshy pendulum…….kids can be so cruel….

And let us not forget the time I was rudely awoken at 4am, whilst in bed…alone…recovering from reconstructive spinal surgery, by a noise that I can only describe as ‘the gentle humming of death’ ….you see, as misfortune would have it, it turns out that at certain times of the year, leaving your window open and light on, is an open invite for Waspy ‘The Knife’ McCuntfuck and his cronies to decide that ‘Hey!…..Your room looks decidedly warmer than out here, THEREFORE we shall share your cozy man cave for the evening…..if you would be so fucking kind…guvnor’, my answer was a resounding ‘NO!….You may NOT! You ill mannered stripy sadistic reprobates!’…but seeing as I was practically paralyzed, the only options available to me at that time were either to accept this hostile takeover, while I lay there and slowly wept, uncontrollably shitting in my pantaloons….or drag my crippled carcass along the bedroom floor….whilst I slowly wept….. and still shitting in my pantaloons….kicking the door shut behind me, and sleeping on the landing….covered in shit and tears…..I chose the latter…..allowing those vengeful gate crashing fuck nuggets to while away the hours eating my munchies, playing on my Playstation and generally treating my room like a seedy backstreet watering hole….I don’t even want to think about what they probably did in my bed…..no sir…..I do not like wasps…and nowadays when I see one in the house….I tend to act…..irrationally…..

Which is more than likely the reason why, when asked if I wanted to review the Wasp Nano RDA, I politely and calmly replied…..”NOIDONOTWANTTOPUTAFUCKINGWASPINORAROUNDMYMOUTHAREYOUFUCKINGCRAZY??!!!……”

“Okay well…..that’s slightly irrational (and weird) but….they make another one….that’s not called the Wasp…..would you like to look at that one instead?”

“Oh….okay…..cool”…..I replied…and so here we are…..finally …..and as vaguely as ever……

Thanks out to HealthCabin.net for very kindly sending this unit to me for review. But as usual, if something’s not up to snuff, you’ll know about it. Purchase link and discount coupon at the end of the review. I have never squonked, so maybe it’s fitting that I did this review from a first time …

I’ll admit right now, I was more than a little intrigued when I first heard about the items I am presenting to you today…and why?….well when a company brings out a ‘thing’…..and ‘that’ thing tends to be in the top 5 ‘things’ of 2017 ….in almost every vapers ‘my favourite thing of last year’ list then…..you can’t not be interested in what they’re going to come out with next…..because whatever that thing is….it could either build on the success of that last ‘thing’…..or just turn out to be that ‘awkward second album’, thus labeling you a one hit wonder….your failure only bolstering the success of other people’s ‘things’….while they look down on you…and shit on your once impeccable reputation…..

The company I am talking about is OBS, and more specifically their ‘home run’ RTA of yesteryear….the Engine. The Engine sat high in the best RTA’s of 2017 list for a vast swathe of vapers, and deservedly so….that thing was a leak proof flavour machine, almost perfect in every way, and is indeed still enjoyed to this day by vapers the world over, however….trends change, there is a ‘fashion’ to vaping and like any fashion it continuously evolves, and if your RTA ain’t day-glo purple with bubble glass and a matching swirly resin 810 drip tip….it ain’t considered as….’sick’…..anymore….

Form over function unfortunately….sells.

So….a change of direction was needed….why make another ‘thing’..when the ‘thing’ you made was good enough?!…As the new designs came in for the next ‘thing’ …OBS’s choice was simple….

Youtube reviewers are on a tear designing vape gear, some are admittedly great and some so so. Matt from Suck My Mod has been one of the most active, his latest in collaboration with Wotofo is the Nudge 24mm RDA. I have been using and building on the Nudge RDA for more than a month now courtesy of fine people at Heavengifts.

Well I guess we can safely say RDA’s generally have a bit more flavour than a tank (there are of course exceptions to the rule).

The hardest thing for someone to get right on an RDA is wicking, the next hardest thing is getting coil building right – lets take a look at an RDA that puts both of those things in the easy column, but at a cost.

Meet the NCR otherwise known as New Concept RDA also known as Nicotine Reinforcer – it appears to have undergone the name change on some sites but not others.

I bought this RDA and that fact will have everything to do with how pissy I am about it.

Oh good! a 24mm RDA, I haven’t read a review on a 24mm RDA for at least…ooh….3 minutes?….

I know that’s what you’re thinking, and I don’t blame you in the slightest, the market is sodden with the things, all trying to be cleverly innovative and all trying to be the next Goon…only with hopefully more competent customer service (ooh)

6 months ago I made a comment in one my reviews that I didn’t know what else there was to do with a 24mm RDA…where else could they go?…What else could be done? You had every top tier reviewer in the world putting their spin on most Vaper’s staple dripper…..even the odd supplier was trying to get in on the act…..with unsurprising results…

And here we are again…another 24mm RDA, manufactured by Geekvape’s spin off company Digiflavor and designed by another video reviewer, and this time it’s the turn of much loved and respected Brian from the popular tube channel ‘The Vapor Chronicles’….I don’t personally know the guy for reasons that I am sure confuse Brian himself but I have heard nothing but good things about him…and I am almost certain…he says the same thing about me….what with my …. booming…. popularity…n all….

Regardless…His RDA has been making waves across this foggy sea of ours with nothing but high praise causing more than it’s fair share of anticipation from the vaping community….is this it?….will the Drop actually be big enough to finally smash the Goon’s legendary status??

You know how I like to keep abreast with the latest in RDA innovation …….(sigh)

I received the iJoy Combo RDA from www.efun.top for the purpose of this review. When logged in the price is $16.99

Doing reviews is fun, you can spend a lot of time on it but as long as I am still having fun and helping others it is worth it. I really do enjoy recommending great products but sometimes you get products which can test your patience………Enter the Ijoy Combo RDA.
